Story
Acacia family support helps families affected by pre and post-natal
depression. This mental illness affects 1 in 7 mums. Becky, a member of our family, suffered from PND and it developed into an acute mental illness. She took her own life in June 2021 aged 44 and I wanted to skydive in her memory and to also raise money to help families suffering with an illness that had such an impact on our family.
Acacia Family Support offers help to mums and families who are suffering from pre and post-natal depression and anxiety. They believe that no mum/dad should suffer alone. They offer support through befriending, group work using CBT, telephone support and help in the home. Your donation will go towards helping many more future families receive the support they need.£5 provides one off practical support at home or befriending.£10 cover the cost of a group work course for one of our mums (with free creche).£50 buys a mum or dad's entire journey of recovery with Acacia.
